Bane scooped up Phoebe and carried her out of the clinic knowing that the last thing any of them needed was attention drawn to them. Prue followed quickly behind not explaining anything to anyone, even though as the door closed she saw Dr. Williams and one of his nurses.

"Prue?!" he called after her but she kept going. "PRUE!"

"Not now Doctor." Prue jumped in the vehicle beside Phoebe and grabbed her cell phone from her purse. "Bane just get there fast!" she ordered as she placed one arm around her distraught sister, while the other hand dialled Pipers cell number, "Come on pick up." She hoped as it continued to ring.

Phoebe leaned against Prue as her mind twisted around what she had seen. Piper getting hurt the same way she had, losing her baby: the same demon attacking her at the docks. "Prue I thought we vanquished him?" she said quietly.

"I don't know Phoebs. But we won't let him get her too. You have to be strong."

"I want this bastard."

Prue looked at her sister, she seemed to have a new energy about her, and her eyes had that same old sparkle they did long ago when they were demon fighting. It was something she missed in her little sister. "And we will."

Phoebe sat up and looked over at Prue before looking to where they were, "Prue we can't, we don't have the potion."

"I know. All I am concerned about now is getting Piper. So once we have her we go back home regroup, make more potion and then find this demon." Prue took her sisters hands in hers, "You up for this?""

"Yeah I'm ok. I just don't want Piper to go through what I did. I can't bare to see her hurt like that."

"Ok then."


Piper got out of her Jeep and started in the warehouse when her cell went off. "Leo I told you, I could take care of this." She had been having the same argument with him since they left the Manor.

"All I was asking was to wait for your sisters."

"Yeah I know, demon activity in the area. I thought Whitelighters were supposed to guide not dictate."

"Piper!"

Piper ignored Leo as she walked inside the warehouse. "Ok lil demon where are you at?"

"Oh look its one of the Charmed Ones come to vanquish me. Now this seems familiar some how."

Piper looked up to the top of the staircase and saw him standing there smug. He looked familiar but she couldn't quite place where.

"Oh come now Piper, you know who I am. Your baby sister was five months pregnant as well last time we met."

Realization hit her as to who the demon was, "Hang you aren't the demon from the book."

"No that was a lower level pond scum."

Leo leaned towards her ear, "Told you."

"SSSHH!" she glared back at him.

"You can't vanquish me without the potion or the spell. So I guess I will just get this over with now." The stream of fire shot towards her as she quickly froze it and him in place.

She pulled her phone from her purse, if just to stop the pesky ringing, it only served as a distraction. But when she saw the call display she was a bit more relieved. "Prue this better be good. I am about to vanquish a demon then a husband."

"Excuse me?" Prue was confused on the husband part but ignored it for the moment, "Ok forget that. Piper get away from the dock. Go back home.

"What? No! What about….."

"PIPER DO IT! It's a trap. It's the same demon that attacked us there before. The same one that cause Phoebe to lose her baby."

"Yeah you could have told me that before I got here and froze him."

"What?"

"Yeah see, me in warehouse with froze demon. And yes it's the same demon that attacked us that night and Phoebe lost her baby. In fact he seems quite please with himself about that little bit.

"Look Piper just get out of there. Phoebes vision was at night so that gives us some time to make that potion again and maybe a bit stronger this time."

"Ok. I'll see you at home." She was about to say good bye when her other instincts took over, not her demon fighting one her sister ones, "How is she?" knowing that if Phoebe saw the attack by the same demon she wasn't going to be doing all that well.

"Good, I'll explain the rest later. See you at home." Prue turned off her phone and looked at Phoebe, "She's heading home. She's ok."

"Thank god."

Bane pulled in the driveway and before the car even stopped it seemed to him, Phoebe was already half way up the stairs, "PIPER!"

Piper came around the corner and was nearly mugged by her youngest sister, "Hey pregnant lady here."

"Yeah back at ya, are you ok?"

"I'm fine. Geesh between you two and Leo, it's amazing I can even go out of the house."

"I was…"

Piper brushed away the small tear that was starting down her sisters' face, "I know, but thanx to you I'm ok. Now what do you say we figure this out and take care of this pesky little demon." She held her look to Phoebes face hoping that she was truly ok as Prue had said earlier, but she also knew the tone in which Prue had told her that. Something had happened, that the oldest would tell her later.

---

Piper sat next to Phoebe as she read through one of the Wicca books and placed her hand on her sisters stomach and felt Phoebes hand land on top of hers

"I can't believe I am pregnant again." She said quietly as she casually cast her eyes up at Prue who had been flipping the pages of the book and hadn't noticed her sister looking at her.

"For a good reason though. You are helping Prue. I don't think I have ever seen her be quite as happy as she has been all day." Piper smiled as she too looked up at Prue

"Well maybe that one time. Remember when she came home late and Andy and her…" Phoebe laughed at the memories she had of her sister trying to sneak back in the Manor

"Phoebe!"

This time Prue looked up and over at her two sisters, "What she do now?"

"Trust me, you do not want to know the answer to that question." Piper laughed as she got up and looked at her potion, "Potions ready."

"Well until Leo comes back and tells us what went wrong last time. We aren't going anywhere with it." Prue decided as she closed the book, not finding any more on their demon.

"Well I don't think you are going to like what he has to say." Leo said once his orbs returned him to his charges.

Prue saw something in his eyes that she knew she wasn't going to like. "Spill it Leo."

Leo looked around at each sister, "They are a clan demon. Meaning you can't just kill one. You have to kill them all. When it looked like you vanquished him last time. All you did was hurt him. Though really bad."

Phoebe stood up and made her way towards her sisters, "So you are saying we need to get them all?"

"Exactly. And the best time is in the morning. When they are all asleep."

"Ok is it just me or are these guys way to much like vampire." Piper added as she sat back down.

"Only we can't kill them with a stack through the heart, we need to kill them at their hearts." Prue put everything together.

Phoebe sat on the large armchair taking in what Leo had told them. A clan? Was this something they would never be free of, she would never be free of? "We have to do this." She looked up at Prue and then to Piper. "We can't keep trying to vanquish these guys. We need to take care of this now."

Prue looked between her sisters, "Are you sure?"

"As ever. Prue I'm ok now. Lets just do this, so Piper can have her baby and I can be sick in peace for the next two months."

Prue laughed, as her sister seemed to bounce from the chair, "Anyone have a locator spell or anything."

Phoebe made her way to the BOS and started flipping pages. She didn't fiond a locator spel but she found something else, "Prue?"

Prue walked over and looked at what her sister was reading, she smiled and hugged Phoebe as the two of them started to recite the spell.

Piper looked at Leo "Leo please." She looked at Leo for anything that would help them.

"I don't know you guys."

Piper stepped up to her husband. "I'll be fine. We all will. Now help us end this."

He couldn't help but get lost in her deep eyes. From the first moment her truly looked in to them he knew she had won his heart. "Ok. Hang on to me."

The three gathered around Leo and disappeared in a bask of lights.

They looked around at the darkness all around them. But it was soon flooded with the lights of a hundred torches, "Ah the Charmed Ones. My brother said you might be joining us soon."

Prue stood instinctively in front of her sister.

"You can't save them here Prue. We both know that." He took a step, though it seemed like more of a glide, towards them.

Prue looked around and saw the demons all around them, but she knew something he didn't know. "No. What makes you think that? Demons. You're all to damn cocky for their own good." With that she threw her potion at his feet as her sister's tossed their bottles that seemed to come out of nowhere.

"No. This can't be."

"It is. Witch craft at its best. How about that? Potions of death for you out of thin air."

Another invisible bottle crashed at the feet of two more demons, as the sisters grabbed each others hands and recited the spell Phoebe had written months before.

"I will not go alone!" his voice echoing off the chamber walls as he fired an energy ball at Prue.

Piper watched in horror as history repeated itself. "Phoebe NO!!!" she reached out for Phoebe, but it was too late.

Phoebe saw the ball heading towards her sister and quickly reacted. She hadn't even thought, as she pushed Prue out of the way and the energy ball grazed her body.

Prue heard Piper yell but felt the slamming of her sisters' body hitting her, knocking her out of the way. The next thing she saw was the demons go up in flames and her baby sister laying next to her unconscious and bleeding at her stomach.
